Reflecting on the Wonder of Christmas

About this item

Reflect on the wonder of Christmas!

In the middle of the holiday season, it’s possible to see the lights in other people’s windows while sensing that you have lost the spirit of Christmas. While trying to live up to the expectations of others, you may find that your own ability to give has drained out of you. Even the sounds of church bells and carols can leave you feeling that God is asking more of you than you have to give. If that describes you, maybe it’s time to revisit the wonder of the Christmas story.
